It looks like a bad date with Supergirl was one of the most crucial parts of Dick Grayson deciding to ditch his Robin identity and become Nightwing.
Warning! Preview pages ahead for Batman/Superman: World's Finest #12 ahead!It seems that Dick Grayson's iconic identity as Nightwing has a surprising connection to Supergirl. A date between the two was so bad, it helped shape the former Boy Wonder's life in ways fans never saw coming.
Any DC Comics fan worth their salt knows about the history of Dick Grayson. Born and raised in Haley's Circus and a member of the world-famous Flying Grayson trapeze act, Dick was a thrill seeker since he could walk. But after tragedy took him away from the circus, he was taken in by Bruce Wayne and turned into the very first Robin.
Interestingly enough, Dick’s decision to become Nightwing is actually a result of Supergirl’s cousin, Superman. Clark inspired Dick during a crucial point in his life and told him a myth of a Kryptonian legend known as Nightwing. Inspired by the story, Dick chose the name for his new life. And it seems like Kara also played a role in Dick’s transition into his own hero.
Dick Wanted to Use Nightwing to Hide From Supergirl Dick becoming Nightwing is usually portrayed as a positive thing for the hero. It showed that he was growing out from Batman’s shadow and becoming his own man. But apparently, all Dick really wanted out of the outfit was a way to hide from the girl he seriously blew it with. Granted, Dick doesn’t actually become Nightwing to hide from the Girl of Steel.
